Guided by Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother

I am a youth working as a guide in a public institution.
When I first started the job, I really wanted to quit it right away because of tough and tiring work.  However, as I assisted the people who needed my help, I could feel rewarded and even realize their warm heart that I have never felt before.
 
An old man who keeps saying, thank you for helping me, even though you must have been so busy.”
An old woman who slipped some snacks and coffee into my hand and students greeting with bright smile….

From time to time, something bad happens but only with the word of encouragement and consolation, my hurt feeling melts away. Only thing I did was to guide people to go to the right direction that they want to go, but from the elderly to students and kids greet each other with a nod.

All of a sudden, the lost brother and sisters occurred to me.  Still now, they should be wandering in the dark world, not knowing how to get to the kingdom of heaven.  We are very thankful when someone shows me the way in the building.  Then, what about Heavenly Mother who always guides us to the eternal heaven and even accompanying us so we do not get lost nor wander any more.  How much should we be thankful for Heavenly Mother?

As we are all God’s called ones who are now on the way to heaven, we’d better guide our lost brothers and sisters who are wandering to the right path to heaven.  That way, we could altogether enter the kingdom of heaven without fail.

Also, we should never be out of Heavenly Mother who is surely guiding us to the kingdom of heaven.

Family

One day, I found someone who could only live as a recipient of organ transplant on TV.  Although most people desperately await organ donors with a faint hope, they are barely keeping their tough life day by day, for it is not easy to receive organs from others.

Those who give their organs to patients standing on the brink of death were mostly their family.  Only if the family could live healthily at their side, they did not even seek a reward for this.

A wife said that she used to blame her husband when he did not make much money even in good health.  Now, since he got sick and there was nothing she could do for him, she finally decided to transplant her organ to him, hoping only he could recover soon.

From them, I could find much realization.  Our brothers and sisters in Zion are the spiritual ones who are given the flesh and the blood of God, who are now making a voyage in belief.  Then I started to think if I could willingly take some part of me to save my brothers who are in trouble and pain.

Born through the unconditional grace and love of God, we are surely essential parts of heavenly family who should accompany on the way back to our heavenly hometown.  That way, there should be no need to hate and envy each other.  From now on, we should become the children of God, who could enter the kingdom of heaven by loving our brothers and sisters with true heart and mind.

Solely for Her Children

In my childhood, I surely was a troublemaker who was considered as ten naughty children.

Every day I tripped, fell, and broke things around me that I shouldn't have.

I was full of curiosity and couldn't just stand without knowing the things that really wanted to know.


My mom always worried that I might hurt myself badly.

She even worried that I might become crooked, so she really took good care of me.

Growing up well under the shade of my “mom,” I was badly caught in the net of “puberty.”

I heard puberty doesn't last longer than one or two years, but didn't know why mine lasted for four years.


My mom tried to persuade me and did her very best.
The more that she tried to take care of me, the more that I tried to be crooked.


But my long roaming years eventually ended by my mom’s love.
After many years had passed by I asked her,


“Mom, how did you feel when I was roaming and wanted to be crooked?”

“It was my first time I wanted to die!”


I was really surprised.
A strong mom like her wanted to die because of her child?
I somewhat felt what parents’ love towards their children was like.
Mom still worries that I might be crooked again.


If I committed the same mistake and gave her a hard time, I surely would be a bad daughter.

I would never want to do anything that would give my mom a hard time.

Still now, Heavenly Mother is hurt by her thousands and more than ten thousands of children every day.


Despite of all that, She never hates us and prays for us worrying that we might be caught by Satan’s evil schemes.


Heavenly Mother truly solely lives for children.


I would never forget Heavenly Mother’s love and proclaim that love to the whole world.

I truly want to solely live for our Heavenly Mother.

A meal

 “…the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.” (Isa 53: 5)


 When I was having lunch after reading this verse recently, a thought flitted through my mind.


 “Do I, as a mere sinner deserve to have this wonderful meal?”


On the table, there were boiled rice, some various side dishes and even delicious stew. What about Father Ahnsahnghong?  He would never have had even a chance to eat one single bowl of warm rice in this world.  Thinking of Heavenly Father who would have preached in the mountain, alleviating His hunger with hardtack and streams, my eyes suddenly ached with tears.


 Then I realized that just as Father was whipped for me, such a prodigal sinner, all hunger and raggedness were suffered by Him as well.



Even though I always eat square three meals a day, I have never thought about where this peace and comfort we are enjoying right now might come from.  Without the sacrifice and love of God the Father, and God the Mother. We never exist right now.



Our Father Ahnsahngong! I am sorry but give thanks to You.  Even though You always starved, You used to give something to Your children.  Father always loves me with sincerity, even though I continue to commit a sin against Him.



Now, as Father asked us to do, I would like to become children of God, who follows Mother until the end wherever She goes.   I intensely miss Father.


I hope we could be with Father and Mother soon.

Mother’s love everywhere- God the Mother

Mother’s love everywhere

On Sunday afternoon, I had some time left after preaching.   Suddenly, ‘Roola’ brought to my mind.  She was a female youth whom I met and studied the Bible with last week, even though I couldn't see her again because of her tight schedule since then. Hoping to see her to give a brochure, I headed for the shopping mall where she works.  I thought a short time should be enough to see her but the shopping mall was literally a sea of people.  I didn't even know how long it took to find the parking space.  Various kinds of people were fully packed, gathering together with family and friends.

Normally, I used to see her from a distance and turned back, worrying if she could feel uncomfortable, since her coworker and boss were always at the store.  That day, however, Roola was the only one at the store for some reasons, despite it was a very busy day.  I sincerely gave thanks to Father and Mother. 
I passed on the brochure about the Passover and Heavenly Mother to Roola, who felt sorry not to have contacted me because of her busy schedule.  We finally decided to meet again sometime and have a bible study together.  I was going to come back to Zion but it was difficult to do that because there were many people gathered together, who should hear of the good news about Heavenly Father and Mother.  So, I decided to take a few minutes to preach the words of God and then leave.  Now that people seemed to be free afternoon, there were many people who listened to preaching. Meanwhile, one female youth started to speak after watching UCC about the Spirit and the Bride.

“Oh, I know this.  It is about God Mother, isn't it?”

“Do you know Her?”

“Yes, God the Mother.  I have heard about it.”

Her name was Christy and she said she has heard about Heavenly Mother when she used to go to a University from 2 hours distance.  Moving in after graduating school, she lost contact with people who used to deliver the words of God to her but now, she could hear the truth about Heavenly Mother once again.  In the United States of America consisting of 50 states, it has large land and countless people enough to say there are 50 different countries gathered.  I was so glad to meet someone who has heard of the truth in this far place.  While preaching to others after exchanging contact numbers and saying hi to her, I could meet a female youth, ‘Christine’.  However, this youth clearly remember Heavenly Mother even though she said she couldn't study the Bible that much.  I strongly felt she must be the one Heavenly Mother is anxiously searching for. That way, I was given a mission to deliver the water of life to souls who have the seeds of words in hearts, which were scattered through Mother’s love.  At that moment, I could feel how much love Mother has toward even one single soul despite he/she does not realize the truth at all.  Mother does not give up on him/her and rather with full of care and efforts, She keeps sending the messengers so he/she could hear the truth again.

Under the love and sacrifice of Mother who never gives up one single soul, the gospel continues to be spread around the whole world.  Now I could see what the gospel is about with Mother’s heart and mind.  That day, Mother awoke me, who used to preach the words of God from a sense of duty at some point. 

I give thanks to God who allows this sinful child to step outside today and participate in the gospel of Mother’s love

Eat well and be healthy

Eat well and be healthy

“Caitlyn, eat your breakfast!”

Without considering my urgent voice, there she goes again dawdling...

“If you don’t hustle, you wouldn’t make to school!”

Another usual talk that goes every morning to my seven-year-old daughter, wasting her time; not wanting to eat her breakfast.

As they always say, “breakfast is the most essential meal of the day,” my child would grow well when she had hardy breakfast, but when she didn’t, she would get sick quite often and wouldn’t grow.

I try my best for her to eat breakfast, but it doesn’t seem to work out easily.

One day, I happened to notice myself putting pressure on her to eat up her breakfast.

Though Heavenly Mother gave me spiritual food every day, I noticed that I was stubbornly dawdling like my daughter.

In the meantime, though I was preaching the words of life to others, I wasn’t quite full with the Holy Spirit, but lacking 2%. It was all because I haven’t taken my spiritual food regularly.

We need to eat three meals a day regularly for us to maintain a healthy body.

Likewise, I realized that we consistently needed to eat spiritual food with thanks, elaborately prepared by our Heavenly Mother for our souls to grow strongly.

Despite of all this, it was a common thing for me delaying; becoming all lazy and saying to myself, “I’m too busy today,” or “I have lots of things to do, I’ll do this tomorrow.”

Now I began to realize that I shouldn’t delay no more.

For me to realize, Mother showed myself through my daughter.

Through her, Mother makes me feel how Mother considers me and hastens me every morning for me to eat up my spiritual food.

For breakfast, I would have strengthening food called fragrance of Zion, for lunch, I would be ruminating with Father’s hidden manna - the truth of green feed, and for supper, I would be drinking Mother’s water of life that she pours down on us at all seasons of the year.

Through this, I would like to become a mature child who gives a smile on Mother’s face. 

Not leaving this foolish, dying child all alone, reviving me with spiritual food, and leading me to the eternal kingdom of heaven; I give eternal thanks for Her great love and grace.

Corinthians Chapter 13

Growing up as the only child, I received love from all of my family; grandparents, parents, aunts, and uncles.

Since I didn't know how to give love and was just familiar receiving it, it was still the same for me in Zion.


Even though I realized Heavenly Father and Mother’s love, I was a sinner who thought that Their love was reasonable.

Mother always emphasizes to ‘givelove’.


It wasn't easy to put in my heart, the heaven’s love that I forgot, the love that Heavenly Mother continuously gives us.

I recently heard general pastor’s sermon about Mother’s love.

Reading Corinthians chapter 13 verses 4 to 7, I questioned myself when I could givethis kind of love.

When general pastor said that this love is ‘thelove that comes from Mother,’ my mind became vacant.




Corinthians chapter 13 abridged into one word:


‘Mother.’

Even when I didn't follow complaining that, ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘it is too difficult,’ ‘how can I give this kind of love,’ Mother was giving me that love that was difficult for me.


Mother was always giving this extremely boundless love, the love that considers more of Her children instead of Herself.

Mother, I now realize that You are the true nature of love.


Please forgive this arrogant and foolish sinner. Please let me be the child resembling Mother’s love, and be the one who fully spreads Mother’s love in this whole world.

I will throw away my selfish self, and deliver Mother’slove that this world does not contain.

Mom’s message

“Why isn't she coming home yet? It’s so late!”

Repeating her words,she was in a dither.
It was all because of my younger sister who still hasn't come home in this late night.
She waits for her call and after a while, she finally grabs her cellphone.
My mom didn't really call her children unless it was something special.


But it was an exception for me and my sister.

It was even more of an exception, when I used to live apart from my family.
I received mom’s text messages every single day.
Though I had my cellphone like my alter ego, I couldn't really reply her messages all the time.




I just felt bad so I couldn't possibly delete her messages, so they just piled up.

Her messages were short and concise, and didn't contain any fancy modifiers or emoticons.However, out of others, they were the friendliest messages, and messages that I could really feel the warmth.


‘I love you darling.’

‘Cheer up pumpkin.’

‘Don’t hang around late at night and go home early.’

‘Are you eating well enough?’

Though I scrolled down and down the messages that I have received, the only difference was the date and time. They were nothing special, but just messages worrying about me.

It could be consider as ‘no big deal, they are just messages,’ but sending those messages, she would have been all anxious, pressing the buttons one by one, trying to send her true heart.

Like the palm of my hand, I can visualize about her thinking about her child all day long, and finally grabbing her cellphone since she couldn't possibly stand still.


In contrary, I am just busy thinking about myself.

However, in a mother’s mind, there is nothing about herself, but full of thoughts for her children.

What’s the use of me talking about Heavenly Mother’s love who gave up Herself for me, the one who was blinded by greed and arrogance?

I cannot repay even with my whole life, or even mimic Heavenly Mother’s love and concern. Receiving Her love and concern, I am the most happiest person in this world.

The Courage to Face the Truth

Why do they deny and reject God the Mother whom the Bible teaches? Some would not acknowledge the truth even though the existence of God the Mother is proven from the Bible. Also, there are people who say that they just do not want to talk anymore because they have never heard such teachings while attending the church for several decades. The truth of God the Mother might sound very strange. So they sometimes say, “It’s a new view” or “it’s a new theory” since it’s very different from what they have known so far.


However, nobody boasts of ignorance. We need to listen to the words of the Bible with a humble mind if we have never been taught, don’t we? The truth of the Scriptures about God the Mother is “not” new. It’s recorded in the book of Genesis and also appears in the New Testament. It’s a precious truth which has been shared in the history of the Bible.


Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness… So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:26-27)


But the Jerusalem that is above [the heavenly Jerusalem: GNT] is free, and she is our mother. (Galatians 4:26)


God the Mother, witnessed in the Bible, was the truth that was also present in the time of the Early Church. But the church became secularized in around the 4th century when it was united with the political power of the Roman Empire. During secularization, the church accepted pagan rituals and ideas which were rampant throughout the Empire.  Non-biblical doctrines appeared and, weirdly enough, Mary, who was just the physical mother of Jesus, took the place of God the Mother. Of course, the doctrine of virgin Mary was affected by pagan religion called the worship of “mother and son.”


God the Mother whom the Bible testifies about is the Savior and the Creator, while Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a mere creature like us.  Jesus also warned us not to regard His physical family members as someone godlike:


As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you [Jesus] birth and nursed you.” He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.” (Luke 11:27-28)


The Roman Catholic Church distorted the truth of God the Mother and instead put up a false doctrine to believe in the false mother by calling a mere woman Mary “the Holy Mother.” Since then, the Catholic Church had exercised absolute power for more than one thousand years and no one had argued about its doctrines. But the corruption of the Roman Catholic Church reached its height during the late Middle Ages and at last its secular power collapsed when the Reformers appeared to obtain religious freedom and to restore the truth which had disappeared. They were the founders of Protestantism.


The Protestant churches declared that they were different from the Catholic Church. But their doctrines such as the Apostles’ Creed, Sunday service and Christmas were directly adopted from the non-biblical doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church.  In other words, their Reformation was incomplete because their restoration was imperfect and only partial amendments were made. Obviously, it it not biblical to “divinize” and rely on Mary for salvation. However, we should not only deny and reject it, but also restore the true truth of God the Mother.  The Protestant churches denied the truth of God the Mother itself.


The Scriptures clearly testify about God the Mother and it is written in Galatians 4:26. However, both Protestant and Catholic churches deny the truth about God the Mother. The former is the one that changed the truth, and the latter that seemingly understands the falsehood of Mary but insists that there is no God the Mother.  When we face the truth, we need the courage to make a decision.


For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.’ (Matthew 13:15)


When the Jews faced the truth that Jesus was the Savior and God, they became so stubborn and insisted that it’s not true. Pilate, who was a judge, feared the Jews rather than the truth and played a role in Jesus’ death by turning Him over to be executed. Now, how would both the Jews and Pilate regret their choice?


You are facing the truth. Today, Christians turn their faces away from the truth of the Bible and act as if they were the Jews of 2000 years ago with a fixed idea that there is only one God — God the Father.  And some are hesitating to accept the truth although they see it. How about you? Will you persist that what you know is absolutely correct? Or, will you ignore the truth as if you did not know it? Or, will you be reluctant to make a decision because you think it’s difficult to suddenly change your belief?


There is God the Mother. We should receive God the Mother to get salvation. God still gives you an opportunity to become one of the prophets who can join and proclaim this truth.  Don’t be stubborn and don’t be reluctant. The blessings and the privileges to face the truth are given to those who make a brave decision.

Mother wants to give out everything

"Mommy?"

A child called her mother.

“Yeah, you need something?”

It doesn’t take even a second for her to answer her child.

Suddenly I thought...

How much would have she wanted to give away everything what her daughter wished or desired?

On the other hand, I felt so sorry for Heavenly Mother.

Though Heavenly Mother waits for us to call Her, since She knew well what we wished or needed, I didn’t.

Long time ago, I heard there was an aged mother who washed the feet of her grown-up son.

The son was well-known as a filial son.

You might consider the son to be unkind for making his aged mother to wash his feet, but he let her, because that was the most pleasurable joy for his mother.

Listening to all of Her children’s prayers, and most carefully taking care of Her children, without considering Her safety, Heavenly Mother always comes for Her children who calls Her.

Heavenly Mother calls that, “Her joy,” and just waits to give out thousands of blessings that She prepared for Her children.

This child, calls You, Mother.

This child, calls You, for the blessings to find all of the lost spiritual brothers and sisters.

Letter from my two girls

Letter from my two girls


I have two daughters who are the apples of my eye.

When my eldest daughter asks,
“Mom, who is prettier? Me or Jenny?”, then my answer is always the same.

“Both of you are equally pretty.”


This is true.  As they grow up, the number of times they fight increased.


Since preaching a homily only brings gin, I asked them to write down briefly about what happened throughout the day and their emotions about each other in the conversation notebook.


I didn't care what the contents are in the notebook.  It is just happiness itself for me since it was no better than a letter from my loving daughters.


My heart vibrates with joy from the very moment I pick up the conversation notebook, wondering how my eldest one’s day today and what the second one would think of.  One day, there was recorded as follows in the notebook of my eldest daughter.


「Mom, I hate Jenny.  She tore off the dress you bought.  You know how much I love it!  Mom, I wish her father than here.」


Even though a little girl said this, my heart ached by the words she wish no sister.



When one of both two gets sick, I feel worse. Like this, their fighting must be a fatal pain for parents.  Now, I opened the note of the second daughter.


Mom, I ‘m so sorry.  I tore off sister’s clothes.  Sorry I wasn't right.  I won’t do that again, I will make money and definitely pay back.」



I got the giggles and felt better.  When I opened the door of eldest one, she was still fuming, looking at the torn clothes.


“Laura, you are upset, aren't you?”



“I am.”


As soon as falling into my arms, she cried quite a while and said everything happened in the day very in detail. I guess she must have been so sad. Actually I already knew everything through Jessica living next door.



“Laura, look at mommy’s hands.  How many ring fingers are there?”


“Two.”

“You know why it’s two?”

“I don’t.”

“One is Laura, and another is Jenny.  By the way, like you said, if one is cut off, then what is going to happen to mom?

“It would bleed and hut so much.”


Holding my hands, a girl was about to cry.


“Right. Your wish not to have Jenny is something like this.  Are you going to say that again?”

“No, Mom, I won’t do that again. I wasn't right.”

“Right, you are my girl and her sister. Then, can we go see Jenny now? She might be snotty now, examining herself.  Jenny said she is going to make money and buy you a dress definitely.”



Just as was expected, the younger one was snuffling.

Some letters unfinished with wobbly writings were everywhere and some coins came out from a piggy bank with its nose cut off.



Last summer, a nose of a piggy bank was cut off too.  I will not forget the time when they got a chocolate pie with the coins they collected for my birthday.

My Mirror, God the Mother

My Mirror

When I eat lunch with my daughter in Zion, I get really nervous.

Seeing Nelly dropping food while she eats or hearing her romping around, I give her that frowning face.



But that was just for that moment.
Eventually she would just be romping around noisily.

Though I talked to her to behave nicely and to be quiet while she eats, she just forgets all of it at an instant, which upsets me.



Whenever that happened, I felt like my image was damaged and I was afraid that I would have the stigma of a mother who can’t educate her daughter. So when I clench my teeth and say “I’ll see you at home,” at last, Nelly gets quiet.



It reminds me of my mom’s moan that “Your child is the enemy.”


Nelly was always my concern. I worried that she might make mistakes, behave rudely and be blamed, as she would always be restless and forget about things.



Being upset, I told my husband sulkily.



“Look at her, all restless and distracted. She looks just like you...”

Whenever I saw Nelly being naughty, It old him that Nelly looked like him. My husband would usually let my joke passed by, but today my husband looked at me as if he really had something to say to me.



“Darling, did you know that Nelly was praying to be like her mom before going to bed? Don’t you think Nelly resembles you?”



I thought I received a severe blow on my head.


Myself... Myself?



How about myself? What kind of daughter am I to Heavenly Mother?



Do I resemble Mother?



Even today, wouldn't She be upset seeing my insufficient self?



According to my sinful deeds, even now, wouldn't she be ashamed of me?



Why am I so foolish? Why couldn't I see myself?



I felt so sorry to Nelly that she was praying to God with her two small hands together so that she could resemble me.Most of all, I felt so sorry to Heavenly Mother.



A child’s faults are mom’s portion. She was my mirror...



You can just tell without being told who the parents were or the children.



The children just resemble the parents.



Appearances,personalities, the way they walk, appetites, likes, and even dislikes...



How much do I resemble Heavenly Mother?



Even though Her children acts in an opposing way, She wouldn't rebuke and prays for Her children. Though She is mocked and ridiculed by their faults, She would feel sorry for Her children’s weakness and would smile. My Mother of Love...



How much do I resemble Mother?



I didn't realize that my daughter’s faults were my faults, and that she was I, myself.



I hated so much that my image was tarnished because of my daughter, and that I had to be embarrassed.



If someone praised my daughter, I just wanted her to be praised, thinking that the praise she has received was for me and I just wanted to be honored. I am so embarrassed today seeing my foolish self.



I will first resemble Heavenly Mother.



Mother’s smile, Mother’s way of speaking, Mother’s love and sacrifice for Her children...



I will become a mom who looks just like Heavenly Mother, so that I wouldn't be a disgrace for my daughter.



For Mother, I will become only joy for Her, and cooling water on a hot summer day.

Even giving a share of God the Mother's liver

Even giving a share of her liver



Trying to see the weather forecast, I turned on the TV.


Changing channels, I stopped; something caught my eyes.


The child seemed to be like a two year old and looked very sick.
The child was suffering genetic metabolic disorder.


As a result, the child had developmental disorder, since the he couldn't digest specific nutrients, and couldn't walk but crawl.

The child had to receive a liver transplant to be cured.




Holding her child, the mother just shed endless tears.




The mother decided to give her liver to her child.


The mother and the child were hospitalized together.

The child cried because of pain and fear.

Though the mother had to go through many examinations, she cried feeling sorry for her child instead of her pain.

The mother gave her child one third of her liver.



Right after the child woke up from anesthetic, he was looking for his mother.

Mother is a person that can only be described with limited words, that is, ‘love.’ She really has something that is so great.



It reminded me about Heavenly Mother who is always sorry thinking that is insufficient, even though She gives out all of Her flesh and blood.


My God the Mother, who is still praying for me...


I give thanks again and again...

Endless Love of Elohim God for the Sinner

A Half of a Fingernail

Being clumsy with the kitchen knife, I had a day when I almost cut half of my finger nail preparing a meal.

My finger wouldn’t stop bleeding, so I quickly put gauze over it and tied it up with some rubber band. By the time I almost finished preparing the meal, my hand was burning and sore.

As my tears that I held back dropped down my eyes, someone flitted through my mind.

The One who saved me with His precious blood…

“My Father.”

With that thought, I engraved God’s unfathomable love in my heart.

Even cutting almost a half of my fingernail approaches me as a fear of pain.

Having His whole body full of blood, how much pain would He had felt?

The pain that I had removing the gauze that wouldn’t just come off easily that clung on the skin, cannot be compared to Father’s pain; taking off the robe forcefully that clung on His body all covered with blood.

The reason why He did not open His mouth when He was oppressed and afflicted,

The reason why He did not open His mouth like a lamb to the slaughter,

It is for my transgressions, my iniquities, and to bring me peace.

After I, myself have experienced and felt the pain, my heart burned realizing God’s love towards me.

The One who loved me until His whole body was all sore,

The One who loved me even enduring the mockery of His creation,

With what kind of word from this world can we describe Father’s greatness?

Not even once, but He had endured twice, of the stinging pain of His whole body.

How can we dare know the end of God’s love for the sinner?

For God’s love, that nothing can exceed, I give all thanks with my whole heart.

God the Mother's Earnest Love

The Mother in the Ambulance

While I was on the bus, an alarm went out. When I looked through the window, I saw an ambulance standing by.


There was a traffic jam from people getting off from work. This created a situation of trapping the ambulance in it.


                                         
After a while, I got off the bus and quickly walked my way curling up myself in the cold wind.


But nearby, there was the ambulance that I saw in the bus. Standing still, it couldn't’ move a yard.


When I reached the ambulance, because of the large window, I could clearly see the inside.


With their whole effort, the rescue workers were doing the chest compression to save the patient’s life.


Next to the patient there was an old lady who looked like the patient’s mother, looking at the patient anxiously, grasping on the patient’s hand.


Even though the alarm was echoing in the congested area, seeing the cars not making the way for the ambulance, I also became anxious with rage.


At that moment, the buses and the cars started to move out, making the way for the ambulance.


‘Thank goodness…’


I definitely hoped for the ambulance to arrive quickly to the hospital so that the patient could recover.


Seeing that incident, I began to think of Heavenly Mother who is anxiously leading Her dying children, each soul after soul, to the way of life.


Not even having a time to look after Herself, She only puts Her whole heart on saving all of Her children.


I thank for Her earnest love and I will value more working myself as the messenger for this age.


I will become at least a smallest help for Mother who is full in hands saving Her children.

God the Mother's deep love

Family of Ducks I Met At the Lake

I thank Elohim God for allowing me to see a precious scene while passing by alake on a sunny day.

A father duck, mother duck, and seven ducklings….


They were so pretty. When I approached them, the father duck and the mother duck,full with alarm, quickly took their ducklings to the waterside.




I guess it was time for food; they came out again right away.

The father duck first set an example getting out of the water to the shore, as ifit was saying, ‘You go out like this.’


One,two, three, four…. The ducklings went out.

But the three young ones couldn't manage themselves getting out.

Feeling pity for the ducklings, the mother duck gave a demonstration again, jumping out of the water to the shore.

Oneout of the three ducklings in the water tried, but it couldn’t come out. Theother two of them were just looking at it.

But one of the ducklings that came out earlier and looked like the eldest, jumpedinto the water and took the three youngest ones to another place.




In our assumption, they seem to be finding a lower land shore.

Despite of their search, there weren't any place better.

They didn't know that their parents have picked the best place.
So the four ducklings again went to the place where their parents were, but they passed the place where the mother duck demonstrated how to jump. Suddenly, alarge swan appeared and threatened them.

When the dreadful swan appeared, the ducklings cried out and ran away from it continuously.

Hearing the ducklings’ cry, the mother duck stopped feeding itself and lifted up its head to realize the situation.


For a while,the mother and the father duck seemed to be having a conversation. Then, the fatherduck took the three ducklings that already came ashore to a safe place.Cleaving through the water, following the sound of the ducklings’ cry, themother duck went looking for the ducklings.




We were so impatient seeing the mother duck busily looking for the young ones. Seeing that it couldn’t easily find them, we pointed out with our fingers to the place where the young ones were.


But the mother duck couldn't understand us. Suddenly I thought that the angels would have been feeling this way also


The mother duck fortunately found the ducklings, and it was quite on alert. Flappingits wings it wailed to threaten us and to the swan close by.


The mother duck and the ducklings that were wandering around in water finally met dramatically, and so they went to the safe place where the father duck and the rest of the ducklings were.


Seeing this scene, I felt Heavenly Mother’s deep love.

I truly thank Heavenly Mother for worrying for us, Her children who sinned and came to this earth would lose the way, always protecting us from Satan, and for finding us, worrying that we have got sidetracked.



It is true that it wouldn't be safe for us until we go to heaven, without theprotection of Father and Mother.


Though the father and the mother duck delivered their ducklings to the place that was most suitable to come ashore, the ducklings lost their way trying to find a better place on their own. Seeing this scene, I thank Elohim God for giving me the realization that I should follow Father and Mother’s will instead of my thoughts in order to go to heaven.


I will become a child being more obedient to Father and Mother’s words.

Father Ahnsahnghong, Your Eternal Love.

Father’s love that I later realized

My father raised us; three children, all alone.

And among those children, he loved me most, who resembled him.

During childhood, he used to take me on his motorcycle when he went hunting or fishing.

I also loved to follow him wherever he went.

As I became a junior high, I liked hanging around with my friends instead of spending time with my father.

“Your dad’s here.”

It was when we were having P.E.

I quickly said it wasn’t my father and ran away.

Noticing that I was embarrassed of him, he silently left without calling my name.

From that day, he didn’t visit my school.

As I became a grownup, I started to come home really late.

My father used to save meat dishes that he made for dinner. Then, he would call me to his room and fed me.

With annoyed look and voice, I would go to my room, saying that I was exhausted and sleepy.

In those years, I couldn’t realize.

The love of my father who waited for me spending all night without sleep, making sure the room was warm enough.

There was a time when I received a gallstone operation.

Since I had no mother, it was my father’s duty to look after me.

My gallstone got infected after the operation and had to be hospitalized for a month.

My father would come to the hospital 7 in the morning and went home 11 in the evening.

Though he spent his whole month for me, this immature daughter was annoyed of him being closed to me and thinking that my friends were uncomfortable with him, I would go to places where he was not present.

I would fume and fret to my father who looked after me every day.

I even starved myself saying that I’ve lost my appetite.

My father would then pack some food at home and come to the hospital which took 3 hours by bus.

Worrying that I needed to eat well in order to take strong medicine, he would always prepare the food nice and warm.

Early morning till late night he would only consider me, but I fumed and fretted and was annoyed with him.

When I finally realized my father’s silent love, he was no longer with me.

That regret still remains in my heart thinking that I should have realized sooner.

As time passes by, I realize how deep and wide my father’s love was.

And then I started to think about Heavenly Father.

I see myself how carelessly I considered Heavenly Father’s untiring love, coming to this earth to give us life.

How painful his heart must have been whenever I neglected Father’s love.

I promised myself not to leave regret in my heart again.

As a child who has received Heavenly Father’s great love, I now want to get on his side and become a child who can give him joy.

God the Mother's Love Everywhere

Mother’s love everywhere

On Sunday afternoon, I had some time left after preaching.   Suddenly, ‘Roola’ brought to my mind.  She was a female youth whom I met and studied the Bible with last week, even though I couldn't see her again because of her tight schedule since then. Hoping to see her to give a brochure, I headed for the shopping mall where she works.  I thought a short time should be enough to see her but the shopping mall was literally a sea of people.  I didn't even know how long it took to find the parking space.  Various kinds of people were fully packed, gathering together with family and friends.


Normally, I used to see her from a distance and turned back, worrying if she could feel uncomfortable, since her coworker and boss were always at the store.  That day, however, Roola was the only one at the store for some reasons, despite it was a very busy day.  I sincerely gave thanks to Father and Mother.
I passed on the brochure about the Passover and Heavenly Mother to Roola, who felt sorry not to have contacted me because of her busy schedule.  We finally decided to meet again sometime and have a bible study together.  I was going to come back to Zion but it was difficult to do that because there were many people gathered together, who should hear of the good news about Heavenly Father and Mother.  So, I decided to take a few minutes to preach the words of God and then leave.  Now that people seemed to be free afternoon, there were many people who listened to preaching. Meanwhile, one female youth started to speak after watching UCC about the Spirit and the Bride.



“Oh, I know this.  It is about God Mother, isn't it?”

“Do you know Her?”

“Yes, God the Mother.  I have heard about it.”



Her name was Christy and she said she has heard about Heavenly Mother when she used to go to a University from 2 hours distance.  Moving in after graduating school, she lost contact with people who used to deliver the words of God to her but now, she could hear the truth about Heavenly Mother once again.  In the United States of America consisting of 50 states, it has large land and countless people enough to say there are 50 different countries gathered.  I was so glad to meet someone who has heard of the truth in this far place.  While preaching to others after exchanging contact numbers and saying hi to her, I could meet a female youth, ‘Christine’.  However, this youth clearly remember Heavenly Mother even though she said she couldn't study the Bible that much.  I strongly felt she must be the one Heavenly Mother is anxiously searching for. That way, I was given a mission to deliver the water of life to souls who have the seeds of words in hearts, which were scattered through Mother’s love.  At that moment, I could feel how much love Mother has toward even one single soul despite he/she does not realize the truth at all.  Mother does not give up on him/her and rather with full of care and efforts, She keeps sending the messengers so he/she could hear the truth again.



Under the love and sacrifice of Mother who never gives up one single soul, the gospel continues to be spread around the whole world.  Now I could see what the gospel is about with Mother’s heart and mind.  That day, Mother awoke me, who used to preach the words of God from a sense of duty at some point.

I give thanks to God who allows this sinful child to step outside today and participate in the gospel of Mother’s love

God the Mother and a toenail

A toenail



It was on one sizzling hot summer day, as if the heat would melt down the road.

My seven-year-old son kept on pestering me to go to the cool fountains in the park.

Thinking that I had to wait in the heat with a towel, for him to have fun in the water, I couldn’t even consider about going.



But of course, my child would never give up.



“Okay… okay… Fine. Let’s go.”



Having a smile ear to ear, my son was full of joy and kept on humming.



When we arrived at the park, seeing him enjoying the cool water, I also felt refreshed and I thought I made the right choice.



“Ouch!”



Checking one of my text messages, I heard a shrieking sound. My son was sitting on the bare ground and crying. When I went close to him, I noticed his toe was bleeding. While I was looking away from him, playing with his shoes off, his toe got stuck in one of the fountains. And trying to get his toe out, his toenail fell off.



I carried him on my back and ran to the ER.

For that small moment, my toes felt so painful as if my own toes were cut off. I was also so anxious. He took an X-ray examination on his toe to make sure he didn’t break any bones.



Fortunately, there weren’t any bones broken. The doctor took off the piece of flesh narrowly hanging on to his toe, and put on some ointment after disinfecting the wound. Though it hurt, my son couldn’t possible cry because he was nervously glancing on me, because he knew he refused to listen to his mother who told him not to take his shoes off.



‘That little toe dressed in a bandage…



How painful would it be?



Oh, I told him to listen to his mother.



No, I had to watch him every single moment….’



I regretted and felt guilty at the same time.



‘This is mother’s heart. Even if there’s a small scar on her child’s body, it is heart-rending.



Seeing just a little toe falling off from his feet really hurts me. I realized how anxious Heavenly Mother must have been seeing her loving children waiting to be sent to this land of death.



It was a natural thing for us to go through for our sins, but our Heavenly Mother sheds tears even today, considering Herself as a sinner.’



Coming back to our house, seeing my child sleeping on my back after being all exhausted from being frightened, I shed tears thinking about our Heavenly Mother.



Though I let Her worry even in Heaven, I still don’t seem to fully repent and always leave a scar on Her heart.



Seeing my foolish self, I couldn’t possibly forget how sorry I was.



I promised myself to change.



Without forgetting Her words that “We must be born again with a flawless faith,” I want to obey all Her words, to become a daughter who can give smiles to Her instead of scars.
